00:00:02,566 --> 00:00:08,000

Today I will introduce a consumable used in repairing electronic products

2

00:00:08,266 --> 00:00:09,700

Solder mask ink

3

00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:10,866

As you can see now

4

00:00:10,966 --> 00:00:16,500

The green-colored paste-like object in this plastic tube is similar to paint

5

00:00:16,866 --> 00:00:18,766

We call it solder mask ink

6

00:00:20,033 --> 00:00:22,866

Maintenance staff often call it green oil

7

00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:27,133

In fact, green oil is not only green in the market

8

00:00:27,266 --> 00:00:33,000

There are also some other colors like black, blue, red, etc.

9

00:00:33,433 --> 00:00:37,266

Because the green color is the easiest to buy in the market

10

00:00:37,666 --> 00:00:42,133

So most of the maintenance staff use this green solder mask ink

11

00:00:42,333 --> 00:00:44,433

Why there are so many colors

12

00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:49,433

Because there are many colors of the surface of the circuit board we repair

13

00:00:49,966 --> 00:00:56,633

The motherboards of the iPhone series I'm holding are all dark brown, close to black

14

00:00:57,300 --> 00:00:59,866

Other models may have other colors

15

00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,000

Android may be red

16

00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:02,566

blue

17

00:01:03,533 --> 00:01:06,833

There is also this dark brown similar to iPhone

18

00:01:07,933 --> 00:01:12,200

If the requirements for the appearance of the surface are relatively high

19

00:01:12,633 --> 00:01:15,166

Then we can choose the same color as it

20

00:01:15,666 --> 00:01:16,500

So

21

00:01:16,700 --> 00:01:19,066

Almost no signs of repairs

22

00:01:19,266 --> 00:01:23,533

What circumstances do you need to use this solder mask material?

23

00:01:23,700 --> 00:01:24,766

Let's find out

24

00:01:26,100 --> 00:01:29,933

The middle of this motherboard has been smeared with green oil

25

00:01:30,433 --> 00:01:31,166

Why?

26

00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:32,533

Let's take a look

27

00:01:37,666 --> 00:01:40,566

Clean the green oil with PCB cleaner

28

00:01:41,733 --> 00:01:44,400

The chip in this area has been removed

29

00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:47,233

The original motherboard was dark brown

30

00:01:48,566 --> 00:01:51,600

All solder joints are dark brown around

31

00:01:52,233 --> 00:01:55,966

The middle area is exposed to the original color of copper

32

00:01:56,133 --> 00:02:02,200

So the exposed area and the four surrounding solder joints are easily shorted together

33

00:02:03,700 --> 00:02:06,700

Short circuit may occur when soldering

34

00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:12,933

In order to avoid the connection between the surrounding solder joints and this area of the exposed copper

35

00:02:13,266 --> 00:02:16,133

So we gotta apply solder mask ink to this area

36

00:02:18,266 --> 00:02:20,666

Next, I will demonstrate how to apply

37

00:02:22,100 --> 00:02:23,966

Open the green oil protection cover

38

00:02:26,633 --> 00:02:29,100

Dip a little green oil with tweezers

39

00:02:30,066 --> 00:02:32,700

This operation can be done under the microscope

40

00:02:35,133 --> 00:02:36,633

When applying green oil

41

00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,500

Apply in small quantities with a few times

42

00:02:39,966 --> 00:02:43,800

If the amount is not enough at one time, you can dip a little more

43

00:02:46,866 --> 00:02:48,900

Don't apply a lot at once

44

00:02:50,500 --> 00:02:54,566

When you apply too much, the green oil height will become very high

45

00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,866

When soldering the chip, it may come up from the bottom to the top of the chip

46

00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,900

This will lead to poor soldering of the pins of our chip

47

00:03:03,066 --> 00:03:04,833

After applying green oil

48

00:03:05,533 --> 00:03:07,533

We can use UV curing light

49

00:03:07,766 --> 00:03:09,233

To solidify it

50

00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:15,300

After curing

51

00:03:15,933 --> 00:03:18,833

This area can't be wiped off any more

52

00:03:19,233 --> 00:03:22,633

So much for solder mask ink.Thank you for watching
